MONsON.


 -Monson is as lively and busy this win ter as hive of honey-bees in clover time. Every departmental business seems to be full of health and vigor. The large manu- factories -woolen and straw, and the quar- ries--are pushing work, and sending off immense quantities of their products. None are idle but the sick, infirm and in- dolent. D. W. Ellis SE Son are now, after their brief respite, under full way. The strike, it is understood, was not common cause among the help; the older and main class of operatives were not actors in it i; 1t was principally the obstructive effort of some persons in the weave-room, who, without giving the matter serious thought to see where it would lead, insisted upon a change of boss. The conduct of the firm in the matter is looked upon as judicious- kindly but firm, and it is thought that good will result from it. They were en- abled to make some necessary repairs, which were being delayed till more fla vorable time than mid-winter for the help to take the vacation that would be required.
 Public entertainments are the fashion, and Central and Memorial halls are well patronized.
 The new academy is practically con- pleted, and will be ready for the next term of the classes. It is massive structure that looks as though it might stand for ages. Into it the builders 1t is said have put good deal of heart work. The dedi- cation in June will be great occasion. Dr. R. s. Storrs of Brooklyn will pro u0unce the discourse.
 It 10 rnmored that the UniversalSsta, now holding services iD Central Hall, ore about to build church and that invaluable corner-lot, central, on Main-st., now owned by 8 wealthy and liberal friend of the cause, may be secured for the purpose i; also, that other wealthy and liberal citi zens, who take heartfelt interest in what ever promises to add to the welfare and beauty of Monson, will lend ahelpful hand.
 In this connection it may be said also that the young folks of the Universalist society, although the notice is not yet out, will give an entertainment at Central Hall on the evening of Washington's birthday, Feb. 22, at which an interesting dramatic piece will be presented, followed by a so- cial dance.
